Overview of 749 West End Avenue

749 West End Avenue is a pre-war residential building constructed in 1920 and converted to a cooperative in 1983. The 12-story structure contains 35 apartments and stands as a handsome example of early 20th-century Upper West Side architecture.

The building's distinctive exterior features red brick construction with a two-story rusticated limestone base. Its elegant entrance is marked by a canopied doorway flanked by lanterns and decorated with unique bas-reliefs of fish surrounding the building's address, beneath a large balcony.

While the building operates without a doorman or concierge, it offers modern amenities including a smartphone-connected lock system, video intercom, and an on-site super. The building permits protruding air-conditioners and allows cats, though dogs are not permitted.

Situated in a prime Upper West Side location, the building sits one block from Riverside Park and near the major intersection of 96th Street and Broadway. The location provides excellent access to public transportation, including express trains at the 96th Street station, as well as abundant neighborhood shopping and dining options. The proximity to the Henry Hudson Drive entrance does result in considerable nearby traffic.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
